Fighting Hunger

OK, so a really good organization contacted me the day before I headed on vacation. I know I'm normally a big goofball but this is a serious subject. They asked me to help get the word out about fighting hunger. I had until today to get that word out and I really wanted to! (sorry this is so under the wire!) I mean come on who's better to tell you about wanting to stop hunger than me?? I chow constantly, and couldn't imagine what so many people go through on a daily basis. Did you know that 31 million people in the united states will miss a meal today (1/3 of which are children)? I couldn't even imagine that. I mean I get cranky when it's been a few hours since I've eaten! (come on I know you do too) I can't even comprehend what the true feeling of going hungry means...

Here's the other thing, they are donating a box of cereal for the first 30 people who comment on this... so come on people leave a comment so some cereal will get donated!

ShopRite's Partners in Caring has been around for 10 years now! Over that time, they have donated over $20 million! They are dedicated to this fight, but they need your help too, head over to Partners in Caring to learn more about how you can help fight hunger!

It really is a baffling situation we have...some children are not getting the nutritious food they need to thrive and grow while at the same time there is a HUGE problem with obesity being on the rise in so many children...very strange...actually lots of obese people are actually malnourished because they are not eating healthy foods...Peace, Stephanie

What a great cause! I'm a teacher at a low-income school, and despite our free breakfast/lunch program, so many of our students end up going hungry. Such an eye opener because we live in a country of excess. It's hard to believe so many people here don't have food. Yay, cereal!

So this is the spot where I tell you that you are a big boy or girl and make food choices for yourself. I'm not a dietitian... nor do I play one on TV! I do this for fun and for the sake of sharing and meeting new people. If you don't agree with what I cook or the ingredients I use that is 100% ok, please just don't harass me with insults about why I choose to eat the way I do :) thank you!
